NO. 5160. HIGHLY IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE From ALL PARTS OF EVROPE, ARRIVAL STEAMSHIP HIBERMIA. ONE WEEK LATER. Progress of the Great Events in the Old World. The steamship Hibernia, Capt. Shannon, was telegraphed off this port at five o'clock yesterday afternoon. Our despatches reached the Herald office at fifteen minutes before eight o'clock. They were brought up by our news steamer Newse boy. We are indebted to Capt. Shannoa, and to the Purser, &e., We, for their kindness and at- teation. The H. sailed from Liverpool on Saturday after- noon, the 8th inst. Our previous advices were of the Ist. The Iibernia has thus made the shortest yassage of the Cunard steamers to this port. The intelligence 1s, of course, important. The revolution in France has assumed a more promising aspect. ‘The late insurrection haviog been completely quelled, and tranquillity appa- rently restored, General Cavaignac, as the almost irresponsible Dictator of France, seems to be zealously occupied in consolidating the govern- ment; the funds are rapidly improving, and for the first time since the overthrow of the monarchy, the hope is raised that France will secure for her- elf, after all her bloodshed and sacrifices, an effective, just, and moderate executive. Panis, after the frightful events recorded in our Jast number, has subsided into a state of compara- tive calm. ‘The measures which the govern- ment of General Cavaignac has adopted have all been marked by consummate good sense | and judgment. Nv longer being compelled to propitiate a class, which had been led Jalsely to conceive themselves the exclusive object ofall legislation, Geueral Cavaignac determined to dispel at once the fullacy of “the organization of labor.” Public opinion has been considerably modified upon this subject, especially by an able wpeech delivered by M. Thters in one of the | bureaux, in which that able statesman challenged the communists to disclose to the world their secret of suppressing at will the miseries of the working people. ‘“ If any one possess such a secret he must divulge it, and if nobody possess it, !2t no ene promise it, for to promise in such a case is to pave the way for the effusion of human blood.’"— ‘The declaration of the new constitution, ‘that man has aright to labor,” 1s directly impeached by M. Thiers, who, however, admits the claims of old age and incapacity from disease and infirmity, torelief. Accordingly, General Cavaignac, having strengthened his position by the introduction of animmenee military force, has announced to the Naticnal Assembly that the atelicrs nationaux are actually suppressed, timely eleemosynary aid be- Ang granted to the indigent until confidence shall have become so far restored as to revive business and the ordinary demands for labor. It may now be said that all the mischievous schemes of Louis Blanc are knocked in the head. This is the first step in the right direction; and a cecond is said to be meditated, which, if carried acto effect, will be a new guaranty for internal teanquillity and peace with surrounding nations. \t is reported that the army of the Alps will be broken up, and that the chief body of the troops wll be transferred to Paris. We should rejoice most sincerely at the adoption of such a bold and eflectual poncy. Jet even at present, all the out- ward indications o1 ine revolution of February are disappearing. The eternal songs ot ** Mourir pour la patric,” “ Lechant du depart,” &c., are heard no more, and the people of Paris have awoke from their hallucinations. The difficulty ofthe moment seems to be, in what way to dispose of the enormous number of prisoners apprehended as insurgents, which are increasing daily. Five hundred more were arrested on Tuesday last; they now exceed eight thousand. The military commissions are incessantly laboring in the ex- | aminations and preliminary processes to bring them to trial ; but no definitive plan has been yet fixed upon as to their ultimate disposal. No hight has yet been thrown upon the complicity of the principal leaders. Caussidiere is publicly alleged to be the chief conspirator; and to him is ascribed the guilt of having mainly concocted the insurrec- tion. The names of Lamartine and Ledru Rotlin are als@ frecly mentioned as having promoted the move- ment, and they are both said to be jealously watched, so that any attempt to escape would lead to their apprehension. But all these reports have no official foundation at present; the members ot the late government preserve a guarded silence, and we perceive no indication of any hostile act | against them personally, either by General Cavaignac or the National Assembly. The con- sideration of the payment of their monthly pen- sions has been, however, studiously deferred. ‘The new constitution n progress of discussion an the bureaux. We only regard these debates as indicative of the political opinions prevailing at the moment; since pending the decision of the great problem, whether a republic can be main- tained in France, where abstract theories as to whether the principe of the constitution shall be, do notto one another that which you wouldnot have done to you,”’or “love one another,” 1s a mat- ter of mere speculation, having no application to a form of government supported purely by a military force. These questions will, however, serve to amuse the members of the National Assembly, whilst General Cavaignae pursues his policy un- controlled of bringing everything into order, and of allowing, if he proves faithful to his principles, fu'l scope for republican institutions, when the French people are fitted to enjoy their practical benefit. We may state, however, that it is now doubtful whether the new constitution will pro- vide for one or two Chambers; a division of opinion prevails upon the subject, and a very strong minority, if not an actual majority, will vote for two Chambers. The communist, Pierre Leroux, desires thice powers in the State. An attempt 1s being made to pro i ment of General Cavaiguac,with plenary executive authority, during twelve, or at least four, months after the constitution shall be voted. But the mo- derate party, with MM. Thiers and Odilon Barrot at their head, will strenuously oppose such aa ar- rangement. At present the conduct and po- licy of Gen. Cavaignac appear — unexesp- tionable; but when the army of the Alps shall be transferred to the Champ de Mars, and Paris surrounded by six or seven bri- fades of troops, which conld crush in an instant ony nffempt againet the executive authority, it will require grout self-denial on the part of Gea ec the appoint. | Cayaignae to surrender the authority which has been conceded to him, and which, perhaps, might again unloose all the wild passions of the Paris multitude. However, General Cavaignac has in- timated that his will be a peace policy ; and if he adheres to that wise resolution, not suffering the temper of France to be roused by the war which ' prevails in Italy, nor al, ed by ‘the cloud which | appeers in the east of Europe,” the French may now apply their genius, undisturbed by foreign rowers, 10 the solution of the problem, whether a republic 1s suited to their happiness, and will promote their civilization, | The arrest of M, Emile Girardin daring the in- sunectien, and his detention during twelve days, have caused great uneasiness amongst all the friends of real liberty. No one pretends that he had any connection with the insurgents ; but in the Presse journal, of which he is the able editor, he has continually seproached the government of February with having signed ‘a promise to pay” the people in the current coin of liberty, which has been dishonored. A few days ago, it was very currently reported that M. Girardin would be expatriated with- out being brought up for trial; but on Wed- nesday morning this able gentleman was set at liberty. During eight days he was kept au secret, and for two or three hours in a cell under ground. ‘This unexplained act of tyranny has been regarded aga deadly blow aimed at the liberty of the press and the freedom of the subject in France. At present x little despotism may,be overlooked and excused ; but when the immediate danger shall be over, the press will claim its inalienable rights, and personal liberty must be secured, or fresh po- litical troubles will inevitably ensu The Paris journals of Wednesday, the 5th inst., represent that the city 1s tolerably free from dan- yer. Some of the insurgents still hover adout in the suburbs, and cut off the sentinels when they are isolated. A complete disarmament has taken place of all those arrondissements where the Na- tional Guards joined the insurgents, and indeed of all those who failed in their duty, | About one hundred thousand’ soldiers are ! now really in the capital, and as many more volun- teers from the provinces. An entire division of the army of the Alps has arrived at Vincennes.— Thursday was fixed for the funeral ceremony to be observed in Paris, and throughout France. The remains of the victims of the late insurrection are to be deposited under the column of July, A funeral service will be performed in all the places ot worship in Paris and in every commune in | France. Arrests of very respectable persons con- | tinue to be made upon the charge of being actively implicated in the insurrection. A clue has been discovered to the murderer of the Archbishop of Paris. The departments seem tolerably quiet. | et Ea . de Chateaubriand died on Tues- av last. The proceedings of the National Assembly, on Wednesday night, concluded with a vote of cen- sure upon M. Carnot, the Minister of public In- struction, for destructive doctrines circulated under his authority, in a book entitled “ Manuel | Republicain,” wherein the rights of families are attucked, and the republic is declared to have power to appropriate propertv, and to inter- fere with private capital. M. Carnot's doc- trines are simply those of “ouis Blanc, and the votes of the Assembly may be taken as a conclusive condemnation of the principles of the | Commumsts. M. Carnot has resigned. The funeral ceremony in connection with the interment of the victims who fell in the insurrection, took lace with great pomp of proceeding on Thursday. ‘he Bourse was-closed, and all business suspend- ed on this solemn occasion. i According to accounts from Italy, a pitched bat- | tle between the Piedmontese and Austrians has be- come imminent, if not inevitable, as Charles Al- bert was paralysed by the Austrian occupation of | Verona. a Accounts from, Augsburg, ef the 2d inst., state that through the intervention of the Bavarian and Prussian ambassadors, the blockade of Trieste has been withdrawn. The only control hereafter to be exercised will be confined to the prevention of the transport of the materials of war. k Alexander Sharpe, “a painter,” charged with sedition, riot, &c., was tried at the Central Cn- minal Court yesterday, but the case had not con- cluded in time for a report in the evening papers. . The Standard of last night contains an address, signed by thirty-five Insh peers, and several Irish members of parliament, calling on her Majesty’s et to put down treasonable clubs, &c., in reland. The whole of Europe still continues in a state of great excitment. In spite of the reiterated state- ments that Denmark and Germany had arrived at some pacific adjustment respecting the duchies, up to heed accounts no appearances ot a settlement of the dispute were visible, but considerable forces were being marched to the seat of war. In Berlin great excitement prevailed up to the 1st instant. Continual assemblages of the people | keptthe Prussian capital in agitation, pressing up- on the Ministerssome impossible request The | reports which were perpetually brought to Berlin | from the Polish frontiers, respecting the movements of the Russian army, added to the alarm; but at present no trustworthy account of the hostile pro- gress of the Russians has reached us. ~The most important event which has taken | place in the German Parliament at Frankfort has been the election ot Archduke John as Lieutenant General of the Germanic tinpire The Prince had 436 votes recorded in his favor; Baron Von | Gagern, the President of the Constituent Assemuly, 52, The Archduke is a liberal in politics, anda thoroughly practical man. He is the present repre- | sentative of the Emperor at Vienna, and in thit | capacity is expected to Clee the Austrian Diet. | This 18 the first practical step towards German | unity; and Prussia at this juncture can scarcely | present any serious impediment to the success of fey miore fortunate rival of the house of Austria. The decision of the Assembly was celebrated at Frankfort with great rejoicings. The committee on international affairs has pursued a moderate course, and declines the repeated proposale of members and corporations to enter into an alliance with France and the Umted States. It demands | more authentic reports respecting the movements | of the Russians onthe Polish frontiers, and in- sists that the army shall be raised to equal the numerical force of the Russians, and shall be placed on the war footing. The announcement of the appointment.of Archduke John as Vicar-Gene- ral has caused considerable excitement amongst the higher circles of society in Berlin, but not ge- nerally. : |. The German and Sclavonian quarrel seems to increase in intensity. The Germans and the Illy- ns have also had a sanguinary engagement at Weiskircheu. fl ; At Bucharest all business is suspended on ac- count of the cholera. We regret to annouuce that this fatal scourge has now appeared in the capital of St. Petersburgh, under circumstances calcula- ted to inspire very considerable alarm. In Italy the military operations of Charles Albert are suspended from’some unexplained cause, In the meantime the Austrians have repossessed them- selves of almost the whole of the Venetian pro- vinces, and they are threatening Venice itself.— Palma Nuova surrendered on the 25th ult. to the | Austrians the whole of the material of war, and a large park ot siege artillery were amongst the spoils. The communications between Lombardy and Vienna are re-opened by this surrender. Itas said that the Piedmontese are about tomake a decisive stroke against Verona; but they are slow in their operations. The 12,000 men of Durando will, be marched to Allessandria to relieve that garrison, which will thus be enabled to take an ac- tive part in the war. There was a report that Ra- det7ky was about to march to Milan. Rome continues in a distracted state. Mobs have assembled, with cries of “down with the pAb and with difficulty tranquillity was re- stored. 4 The accounts from the Neapolitan dominions are very contradictory. The Calabrian insurrec- tion has, we are led to believe, assumed a very formidable character, and the insurgents seem in- spied with a desperate resolution. Whether the forces which are sent to suppress them will be suf- ficient, must depend upon the attachment of the troops to the King. A. revolt had taken place at Procida amongst the galley slaves. The insurree- tion was subdued by the National Guard, after the slaughter of about 150, and as many wounded From S;ain we have the usual reports of a pro- Jected Carlist rising. General Elio has, it is said, enteréd Spain with Arroyos and Sopelanna, for the purpose of effecting a rising in Navarre, and has also been joined ky Cabrera. 0 is aman of pru- dence and talent, and his movements are doubtless of the first importance, Foor of the chartists have been convicted of sedition and seditious conduct, It now becomes aquestion for the consideration not only of the Judges, but also of the country at large, what amount of punishment should be inflicted on the risoners.

Mere than 100,000 muskets have slrealy been re- turned to the arsenals of the State. In some quarters p their muskets and swords with great alacrity, but eearches having been made in their houses, arms and ammunition were found secreted. ‘Aneye witness thus describes the subsequent ap- pearance of the different localities where conflicts had taken place:—On the 80th uitimo,1 made a further tour througl. the theatre of the greatest destruction of property, and I find it is not so extensive us has been reported. The chief points are the end of the Rve St. Antoine, near the Hotel de Ville. where the street becomes harrow; there sre several houses on the north side battered by cannon, in a tottering con. dition. On the south side the windows and wood work are damaged by musket balls, In the Rue du | Faubourg du Temple, the entire line of the street, from the boulevards to the Barriere Belleville is more or less damaged. The houses on the north side of the canal are conride ably battered. Pursuing the line of the exte. rior boulevards tothe head of the Rue de Menilmou tant, there arc marks of fighting, but no great destruc- tion of property. Descending the Rue Menilmoutant to the canal, ali the houses are damaged, but there are no traces of cannon-shot, The most striking | destruction of property is a point at the lower end of | tho Kuo Faubourg St. Antoine, next the Bastile The cannon placed on the place near the column, and st the entrance of the boulevard, played | directly on the houses forming the angles of ‘the Rue | de la Rouquette, the Quai des Jenappes, the Rue Fauburg St, Antoine, the Rue de sthe Rue | de Planchet, and the Rue de Contrescarp veral | houres forming the angles of these converging streets | re litcrally batfered to pieces. ‘Two or three-of them are in ruins ;}ihe others exhibit large holes in tho walls, | three or four feet in diameter, and are in a tottering | condition, The shower of balls thrown up the Rue Faubourg St. Antoine riddled the houses on eitherside | to adistance of some hundred yards; the windows and woodwork are fer the most part destroyed, and lange fragments chipped from the walls in every part. The conflict in this direction appears to have been limited to the low:r end of the street. On ascending the faubourg, although there are remains of numerous barricades, there are few marks of fighting. The Rue de la Requette is impassibl uins of the houses | knocked down forming a smou eap, which can- not ke eafely surmounted on foot. ‘The environs of the Pantheon were another acene of action, but much fewer marks of destruction are observable there, ‘The | narrow line of the Rue St. Jacgaes has much glass and | woodwork broken, but the play cf the artillery appears to havegbeen directed on the chu:ch, which has been | much disfigured ; the bas-relief in the pediment which surrounds the vestibule, is much battered, and the en- tire of the building is raid to be agood deal damaged, It has happened fortunately that the parts of the town where the conflict chiefly raged consisted of old build- ings, generally of small value. The following is the latest report of the superior of- ficers killed and wounded in the insurree| ; Negrier, killed; General Brea, assassinated; Francois, killed; General Regnaud, killed; General Bourgou received a bull inthe thigh, since dead; Gen. Corts, wounded in the leg, his state ratisfuctory; Gen, Damerme, his leg has been amputated; General Duvi- vier, wounded in the foot—more serious than fir@ sup- posed; General Foucher, wounded in attacking a bar- ricade in Faubourg du Temple ; General Lafontaine, since dead, ‘Thus ten general officers have been killed or wounded. The number of colonels and superior officers put hors de combat is immense. | | | On the 29th, @ sentinel observed a cabriolet, in Which were two men, pass by him, which attracted his attention, ‘Thinking the springs were more depressed than they would be by the ordinary weight of two men, he called on the driver to stop. ‘The men were obliged to descend, andon searching the cabriolet, a Jarge sum in gold, of Russian coinage, and a consider able quantity of cartridges werefound. | When inter- | rogated, they pretended not to understand French, | and made the rentinel understand they wore Poles. A national guard addressed them in Polish, but no re- ply; in English and German, no better success was obtained. ‘Thes were arrested, aud taken before the Commissary of Police, ‘They were armed with dagger pistols, PNA great number of the balls extracted from the wounded of the National Guard and the army were compored of pieces of iron, which, by a-refnement of cruelty, were pierced, and a piece of copper wire intro- duced which projected on each side. In many cases this has prevented the extraction of the ball, and the wounded have consequently died. ‘There are three generals of the army of Africa now in the government ignac, Bedeau, and Lamoriciere; anda fourth general, Changarnier, w ll have the command of the National Guard. The body of aman who was a most furious dema- gogue, and who was president of the Club des Droits de I'Homme, attended by large numbers of the work- ing classes, and who had acquired the soubriquet of | & Tete de Bronze,” has been recognized at the | Morgue. He was killed at the barricade in the Rue Ro- | chechouart. ‘The appointment of Gen. Changarnier as command. er-in-chief of the National Guards of the Seine appears in the Moniteur. ‘The disarming of the four legions of the National Guard of Paris, whose conduct brought discredit on them in the late ‘insurrection, is contin- | ucd with great activity. Particular companies and in- dividuals of other legions are also included. On the evening of the Ist, between 7 and 8 o'clock, a train of 42 corriages of every description, including wagons, omnibures, carriages for the removal of furnicure’ and a variety of other vehicles loaded with muskets, pasted along the Boulevards en route for Vincennes. An the best informed quarters the general opinion prevails that the real chief of the late insurrection was Caussiditre. It is suid that things were, not unknown | to Louis Blanc, but that he shrunk from any active | share. The evidence already obtained by the committee of inquiry ax to the insurrection goes to show that on the day before the Insurrection (on Thursday), during the whole day, the chiefs of each of the principal rections of the insurgents examined the places that each of their sections was to occupy, and that those who were to command received thelr instructions. ‘The organi- sation of sections and brigades was already made, for it corresponded with that of the afeliers natvonaux; there were lieutenants, brigadiers, and chiefs of detachments, Independently of these arrangements thy chiefs ali met on Thursday evening, to confer and cneonars each other for the meeting of the following day. Important discoveries appear to have been made by the megistrates on the events of the insurrection. Documents of the highest importance have been seized, which will skew from whence proceeded the money dis- tributed, and who were ieally the chiefs of the insur- rection. The committee har alrendy heard numerous witnesses, and collected a great quantity ot documents The inquiry has for its object to ascertain what iuic: mation the executive commission had, or should have had, as to a conspiracy that every one knew existed, and what motives to ceglect such measures or precau- tions as were required for the public rafety. The num- ber of troops of the line in Paris was only 10,000 on the 22d June. ‘There are now 60,000, It is said that the Minister of War intendsto form | three military camps; one upon the Plateau of Satory, | at Versailles, another upon the Champ de Mars, and a | third at St. Maur. These three camps would be com- oxed of four brigades, to be commanded by Generals | Dulac, Hequet, Ray, and General of Cavalry Reybel. There will be also a commander-in-chief. The insurgents who were stationed in the Jardin des Plantes have, it is said, killed and eaten during the three days, the rare birds, and destreyed the pheasan- try; even the small exotic birds have shared the same fate. M. Bureaux de Pury is appointed Prefect of Police. At the Morgue , where the bodies of all persona found Killed after the insurrection, and not immediately claimed, are brought, there is daily a queue several hun- dred yards in length, composed of persons of both sexes, Whore friends and relatives are missin, and who seek their remains in that melancholy depository. The rigor usually attendant on a state of siege is now considerably relaxed, and such of the tradespeople of Paris as are not bankrupts bavereopened their shops and bureaux. A notice has been sent to the theatres and places of public amusement by the police that they ure authorised to re-open. The theatres, how- ever, show no intention of responding to this. Gew, Lumoriciere was accompanied in one of bis visits to some of the prisoners taken in the late insur- rection. by M. Thiers.

He stated that the intention of the Go vernment was to send @ large number of the ouvriers from the departments to different points, where works d'urgence were to be commenced. The Government also proposed to send considerable numbers to Algiers, to colonise that country upon a modification of the system proposed by Marshal Bugeaud. The remaining portion of Ihe workpeople will have allowances mato to them at their own houses, On the 2d, a force of 5000 men was directed to Pa teaux, a little manufacturing town on the left bank of the Seine, near the bridge of Neuilly. The town was surrounded, and all the inhabi disarmed. The place is said to be a focus of communism, and it is thought that the incendaries who burned the royal residence of Neuilly came thence. A circumstance bas transpired which has created no little surprise. M. de Lamartine is about to quit France, The pretext is, that he intends to travel in ‘ast, and that he is to be accompanied by Madume de Limartine. His departure must be very near at hand, as it is suid that some of his luggage has already been despatched for Marseilles. . de Lamartine’s departure at the present moment, and under such peculiar circumstances, has given rise toa variety of rumors, of which the truth is very doubt- ful. Among other improbable reports, it is said that M. Lamartine, in the first place, applied for a passport for Evgland, and that the executive government re- fused it on the ground that, b: fore going, it was neces- sary that the National Assembly should examine and approve cf the acts of the Provisional Government and the Exccutive Committee, from the period of their coming into office on the 24th of February, till the 24th of June, when th uitted it, and that as many questions might be asked, and explanations required by the Assembly as to there acts, and especially as to the expenditure of money, it would be exceeding! convenient that M. de Lamartine should be absent at such aimoment. Supposing this story to be true, it would merely show that the present powers disapproved of the absence of M. de Lawartine at all, but it does not uceount for his passport being refused to England and granted@o Marseilles. We read in the Representant du Peuple, “The Society of the Kights of Man remained aloof from the late in- turrection, It numbers 35,000 men, for the future,”? General Cavaignac has given the Assembly, ngreea- Diy to his promise, an account of the situation of the national workshops. ‘The wud reserves itself zation, ‘The idea of their institution was good and equitable; but, in the course of time, they had become menacing for liberty and the tepublic. General Cavaignac had paid the most seri- ous attention to the matter. and came tothe resolution of suppressing them altogeth Since the late insur- rection, he had interrogated several persons respecting the number of individuals who participated in it, and the highest number he had heard mentioned, by the most competent to know the truth did not exceed 50,000. Now. the effective number of operatives in- scribed on the regikters of the national workshops amounted to between 105 000 and 104,000, so that the combatants belonging tojthem were in agreat minority. Tia fact was proved by the arrests subsequently made. A letter which appeared some days since in thy journals, written from the Piedmontese head-quarters, aflirming that two officers of the staff of the army of the Alps had arrived there with offers to Charles Albert, that that army should cross the Alps, and march to his aid if required, has excited some atten- tion.

Carnot and Lebane, especially the former, we noticed in our second edition on the Ist inst. These gentle- men have had the good sense to retire before that un- equivocal expression of the opinion of the majority. M. Jean Reynaud, the secretary of the department of Public Instruction, has also been obliged to re- tire. M. Reynaud is an avowed socialist, and iskaown. asthe author of the famous cireular addressed te the electors before the vlection for the general Assembly, in which education was declared to be superfluous, and, in some respects, injurious to a representative.— This circular, was, however, signed and agopted by M. Carnot. It is said that M. Goudchaux, the new Minister of Finance, intends to propose a project for enabling the banks Ganneron, Baudon, and Gouin, which have closed since the revolution of February, to resume business, .The first ertablishment to which the mea- sure will be applied will be the Ganneron bank On the 24th, the prisoner Barbes and others whe were at Vincennes, were removed to Ham. It is said that M. Dupin, ainé, intends to propose that the presidency of uhe republic shall be given to Gene- ral Cavaignae for fifteen months. ‘The usual weekly account of the bank did not appear inthe Moniteur; but adividend on bank shares of 3uf for the fir-t six months of 1848 was declared, and offi- cially published in the Bfoniteur. Most of the bureaux, on being recognised, proceeded immediately to the discussion of the project of the con- stitution. ‘The preamble, which contains a declaration of the rights of man, encountered a lively opposition, grounded chiefly upon the fact of its being vague and declamatory, and partaking more of the character of clap-trap forthe people than as having any distinct and practical signification. ‘The declaration of the rights of labor produced some animated discussions, in which M. Thiers took a prominent part, delivering @ speech which made a considerable sensation ia the bu- Teau, and was seen in every one’s hand this morning. Decidedly, moderation and intelligence are coming into the ascendant, and the democratic and social republic 18 at a saddiscount. M. Leon Faucher also spoke in the 7th bureau, with considerable effect, against the preamble of the constitution. Thisis a circumstance | ofa negative kind, which strikes an observer very for- | cible, on comparing these days with those of March and April—the “ Marsellaise,” “Mourir pour la Patrie,”’ the “Chant du d:part,”’ jand similar airs, which never ceased to sound in the streets and public ways,are now literally never heard. M. Carnot, the minister of public instruction, has resigned his office, having fallen into disgrace by being defeated in the National Assembly, on demanding 1,(00,000f. or the amelioration of the condition of pri- mary teachers. M. Bonjean moved an amendinent, that the rum should be reduced 5.000f, upoa the ground that the minister had publi-hed, at the public expense, a certain book calied the Manuel sepublt- cun, containing doctrines of a very violent and anar- chieal character. ‘The amvndment being put, was cai ried by a majority of 11.

M. Goudchaux con- cluded by reading five projects of a decree, having for its object : 1.

The workmen dwelling in the lately disturbed quarters had determined upon sallying out upon the Boulevards, and making s hostile manifesta: tion against funeral honors done to those with whom they had been engaged in mortal strife. “By @n order cf tho police this ‘morning, the persiennes of all the windows were thrown back, so as to prevent shots be- ing fired from behind them, and as rumor is always busy on occasions like the present, it Is affirmed, that had the funeral procession to the Bastile been persist- ed in. there would have beon a catastrophe. ‘The ceremony is now confined within the space betwee! the chamber of the National Assembly and the Mad leine, and can Le witnessed by comparatively fow per- sons. for the neighborhood is filled with troops and National Guards.” The ceremony was altogether ill- judged and ill-timed.
